"Audio-Technica's first turntable specifically designed for DJing. The AT-LP1240-USB hits all necessary marks for DJ use: solid construction, powerful motor, accurate pitch / speed control, and a skip resistant tonearm. In addition, the USB output and built-in pre-amplifier are excellent features for those who are ripping vinyl, while the reverse play, dual start / stop buttons, and start / stop controls will appeal to DJs that need more control." - TTL
